Author's Notes

You can make your fajitas seasoning by using chili powder, cumin, cayenne, paprika, garlic, powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, and adjust the taste according to your preference.
If you are using packaged fajitas seasoning, make sure to adjust the seasoning according to your preference.

Cooking Instructions

Hide images
step 1
In a small bowl, combine the Fajita Seasoning (1 1/2 Tbsp), Simply Organic Cumin Seed, Ground (1/2 tsp), Dried Oregano (1/2 tsp), Simply Organic Garlic Powder (1 tsp), Paprika (1 tsp), Brown Sugar (1 tsp), Salt (to taste), and Simply Organic Black Pepper, Medium Grind (to taste). Mix well.
step 2
In a large tray or ziplock bag, season the Skirt Steak (1 lb) with half of the fajitas seasoning mixture and Sunflower Oil (1 Tbsp). Mix well and marinate for at least an hour but better overnight in the fridge.
step 3
30 minutes before you are ready to cook the steak, prepare your veggies. In a large mixing bowl, combine Red Bell Pepper (1), Yellow Bell Pepper (1), and Red Onion (1) with the remaining Sunflower Oil (1 Tbsp), and the remaining half of the fajitas seasoning mixture. Mix well.
step 4
Heat a cast iron skillet with a little oil over high heat until there is some smoke. Cook the steak for about 1-2 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness.
step 5
Transfer the steak to the cutting board and cover with aluminum foil. Let the meat rest for about 5 minutes.
step 6
Meanwhile, in the same skillet over high heat, cook the veggies for about 5 minutes. Stirring occasionally. Once done, turn off the heat.
step 7
Cut the steak against the grain to the desired thickness. Bring the steak strips back to the skillet. Prepare the Margaritas.
step 8
Combine the PATRÓN® Silver Tequila (6 fl oz), Orange Liqueur (4 fl oz), juice from Limes (4) and Simple Syrup (1 fl oz) in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously with ice to chill.
step 9
Strain onto fresh ice in a rocks glass and garnish with a wedge of Lime (1). Optionally, salt half the rim of the glass with Kosher Salt (to taste).
